Puget Systems Reveals Intel Core & AMD Ryzen CPU Failure Rates In Report: Claims Higher Failures on Ryzen 7000 Than 14th Gen

Puget Systems has revealed the failure rates for Intel Core & AMD Ryzen CPUs, and the statistics compiled indeed tell an entirely new story.

Puget System's Data Reveals That The Firm Has Avoided Intel Instability Issues Through "Self-Tested" Power Limits & Settings, New Stats For Intel Core & AMD CPUs Revealed

Intel's 14th & 13th Gen CPU instability fiasco has been ongoing for quite some time now, with the company "seemingly" trying its best to mitigate the solution, yet nothing has worked out. There has been some confusion in the industry regarding the general impact of the problem on the markets since consumers and businesses have reported a failure rate of up to 100%, which is massive and shocking at the same time. However, for Puget Systems, the failure rate is significantly lower, not exceeding the double-digit mark in some cases.

Based on the data compiled by the firm, it is evident that Intel's 14th Gen & 13th Gen CPUs had seen a massive spike in failure rates compared to the other generations, but interestingly, the level of failure isn't higher than what Intel's 11th Gen CPUs had experienced in the past, which is indeed something surprising.

Despite this, the new instability issue is concerning for Puget Systems, given that they say that processors are failing after 6 months of usage, showing that Intel's microcode patch hasn't been able to do its job.

In terms of the actual figures, Puget Systems says that their 14th Gen & 13th Gen systems have a "shop failure rate" of less than 2%, while field failure figures (end-user failures) are much higher.

Interestingly, AMD's Ryzen 5000 and Ryzen 7000 series had slightly higher failure rates than Intel's 14th Gen & 13th Gen CPUs in the findings. Through this, the firm says that they haven't seen as much of an impact as being reported in the media, so does that mean that there is a flaw in the
